CM7 Nightly24.........appears so much snappier w/ EL30, interface a preface to log entries in CM7github since 01/22.......the transition has begun.

*edit: N25 appears appreciably slower than N24..........must be the towers being upgraded within the five mile circumference of my laboratory window: until they complete the work, speed shall remain a matter of 'perception.'

[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
You do realize. That those transitions were added by CyanogenMod Maintainers to give devices which are being dropped in CM9 a feel of ICS, being that they won't get official?

There's not a transition, none of these nightlies will magically become ICS there will be a different thread opened when it's necessary, to clear this up. Nightlies for CM7 are namely for CM7.
[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
that, and a modem won't make your phone "snappier"

nightly 25 booted fine

Ok I'll try that is that the only ics change so far and was the settings themed as well. Thought I saw someone post a pic of a themed settings
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
It is still stock GB themed. You can just get an ics theme from the market. I posted a pic of cm9.

If anyone is wondering I used ADW EX, the ics theme for cm7 on the market, the ics theme for ads on the market, the ics livewallpaper from the market, an ICS metamorph for cm7, settings > cm settings > lockscreen > ring lock style >ics and simple lock. And also cm settings > notification power widget > change color to cyan.
[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
You'll only see the ics animations if you have"all animations"checked and not just"some animations"in settings
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
I hope this is a helpful note to the cause. Both 24 and 25 just black screen boot for me. I have reinstalled 23 over both failed installs and it works everytime. I didn't try to clean install either 24 or 25.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
looks like you're going for the ics theme, and i hate to be too presumptious, but have u seen the new ics boot ani from the cm blogspot?

cyanogenmod blogspot

just the bootani.zip

it's a lot nicer looking than the old one was...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
Can you post the metamorph your using? Cause since nightly 20 the metamorph from the cm7 ICS theme thread does nothing for me anymore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Devtodi:
Will EL30 be integrated into one of the lightlies? I would prefer not to have to Odin back to stock to get it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
That's the one I have been using but thanks anyways.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I haven't applied any yet because I reodexed before because I forgot. And sunset you need to be deodexed to metamorph, I can't...
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Well this doesn't have to do with stock Samsung roms. You also have to use a bml recovery to flash a bml modem so they cannot integrate anything.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
So has development all but ended for cm7 in place of cm9? I get the excitement of pouring all resources into cm9 but it's an almost certainty that even with a rc worthy release it will probably be far from a finished polished stable product for months. I for one would still prefer to see a fully "stable" ranked cm7 to fall back on. Things like the call feedback for one presents hazards in cases of emergency if people cannot understand you or be understood by you. And the HQ/HD video recording is still borked (not for all, but for more than enough for it to be known to be an issue) along with other more obviously minor and less pressing/important bugs.

Why fix existing bugs, when something newer could come out with same/less bugs?

[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Cm7 is still being worked on (the led just got fixed) and is also getting upstream fixes. 7 will be abandoned at the point of official 7.2 (not RC) if no major bugs arise. There still.will be changes and updates for devices who are not fortunate enough to get cm9 that incorperate ICS features. We will also still get cm7 nightlies with upstream changes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lonnie23:
Is it just me , or can everybody not receive mms over wifi ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
No, it's currently not just you. Others are experiencing this as well I'm sure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rprockey:
Where do you see that the led got fixed? I see something to that effect on the ics branch in github but not the gb branch. Am I missing something?
[Epic 4G Android Development] iil:
It honestly depends on the bugs we are talking about. Most of us need something we can actually use as a daily driver and CM7 is very close to being there. It seems reasonable to fix the certain bugs until CM9 is getting just as close to being a daily driver.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
The call feedback is most important imo, but the camera issue is something I've obviously brought up a few times that I really hope gets fixed. Our devices are phones before everything else mind you and if people can't understand us or be understood that poses risks in cases of emergency. I say this only because the feedback and echo can become very, very bad more often than not. The majority of my calls are spent with "I can hardly understand you".
[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
Not sure what you are talking about. I have never had problems with call feedback or echoing of any kind with any of the CM7 nightlies. I really don't know how anyone could not be using this as there daily driver. It is by far the best ROM that I have ever used and maybe I just don't use it to the extent of everyone else but my camera and everything else works just fine. Ya i can't get an mms message over wifi but who really cares that much. Anyways, you guys rock, thanks for the badass rom. I am addicting to flashing the nightlies even though i have no clue what most of the stuff from the changelog means. Happy flashing!

Why is mms still being a punk too me?

LED is fixed on ICS branch only CM7 lacks the necessary framework bits and likely will "never" get them...

"never" could be never or wimax-never who knows.
[Epic 4G Android Development] djmeph:
My device is an internet device first, and phone second. If I could, I would use Google Voice through 4G to make all my calls. I can't wait until the day that phones are no longer burdened by having to communicate with cellular towers, and do everything through the internet. Everyone's needs are different. From what I have seen so far, the devs have been very attentive to every issue that is brought up, sometimes issues with 3rd-party apps that they were not even responsible for. I don't know what gives you this sense of entitlement to come barking demands like this, because there is no reason to believe that the Devs aren't working their tails off to solve every issue. Show some respect.

Edit: Also, I am not having this issue, and never have.

Flashed n25 and same ICS animations are there when you rotate the screen or exit out of an app.

I did not see one demand in that post... just stating he had call feedback and echoing and he hoped it would be fixed because he feels it is important (which it is)...

I was wondering if it would be at all possible to add the setting to be able to change carrier name under status bar tweaks. This was an option when I used cm7 for the optimus v and would greatly appreciate if cm7 would get that option.

Look, I don't want to police this thread, and I will make no more attempts to do so. I'm just going to sit over here and pull my hair out while I watch people continue to be really disrespectful to the devs. I'm sorry that I ever tried to make this thread readable for the people who care about the developments on this ROM, follow the rules of the forum and show respect to the people that made it happen. Every time I speak out, someone lashes out back at me. I'm over it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nastypup:
My call feedback problem is different. I hear the callers perfectly and they hear me perfectly. However, they hear their own voice reapeating ~ a second after they speak! People are getting angry with me like I'm doing it to them on purpose.

[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Ironically, our phones get their data (including 4G) via those cell towers you want to do away with... unless you stay close to a wifi hotspot at all times, you'd be hosed :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] djmeph:
I'm more referring to the cellular radio inside the phone vs the separate radio that picks up the internet signal. That has become a huge burden for mobile devices. They could be even smaller, have more battery life and less headaches for developers if it all came through one signal. The tower is irrelevant.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Speedin07si:
On nightly 25 the "roam control" feature in the settings works. I'm stuck in a basement with no windows and barely any cell service. No service on sprint's network.

I look it's set to home only. I switch it to automatic and I got full roaming bars.

As far as I know it will be fixed when they switch to non-generic audio drivers which I believe was causing the squeel which the side effects are minor compared to. Aparrently Samsung did some audio driver fixes in el30 that can fix the squeel with non-generic drivers (if I am thinking right...)
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
My point earlier is that cm7 still gets upstream fixes because most cm7 phones have nowhere near fully functional cm9. I was just tired aand reading gerrit.

I am on nightly 25 too, and thought that the ^^^ would replace my RoamControl app. However, switching to the "Affiliated Networks" and then exiting does not force roam on my phone :( (selecting "Affiliated Networks" does not force roam, and the setting returns to "Automatic" every time) while using RoamControl forces roam every time when choosing "roam only".

To access:

Settings -> Wireless & Networks -> Mobile Networks -> Network Preferences

I hadn't had my phone randomly reboot since nightly 15... would wipe data/factory reset/caches, reflash nightly and restore. This tended to fix random reboots caused by bad flashes and/or corrupted data on various roms.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
Use font changer, I found a roboto.ttf.

Beautiful Widgets. Go launcher ex w ics theme. I used ics 3d blue - cm7 theme. The lockscreen is built in, just set ring lock and minimal at the bottom.

Sonny ics theme is free but doesn't have colored settings and a few other things. Both themes look great and Sonny's is more updated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stkiswr:
I also haven't had any rebooted and running since 19, I just wipe cache and dalvik a few times and flash. Then fix permissions. The reboot. And reboot again. I do all from recovery and have never done it from rom manager

Also the only phone cm7 worked w affiliated networks for me was my Evo 4g. It worked perfect. On my nexus s 4g and now my epic 4g it does not work. I Jane been told some phones can and some can't. I'm leaning towards Samsung won't and HTC will as that's been my experience
[Epic 4G Android Development] tazfanatic:
This was suppose to be fixed on #20 according to change log.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Yup but it's not. You can get out maybe 1 out of 10 on wifi. The rest just stay "sending". It tries to turn off wifi, turn on 3G, send the mms and turn wifi back on but if 3G don't connect quick enough it gives up. So it still is not sending on true wifi the few times it works.

After several visits to ODIN this past weekend, my device responded superbly to Nightly 25 and advance restore of my data from prior Nightlies..........to each his own (we all can agree that generally speaking, each device responds differently), but ODIN appears to have cleaned things up. So, NO reboots, flickering screen, or odd behavior whatsoever here.

Not sure when this was fixed, but I just noticed after calibrating (with compass app) that my compass is accurate!

[Epic 4G Android Development] n0g0:
I'm on n25, everything is working great. All MMS send/receive working fine using Handcent. I do still have some battery drain issues I've narrowed down to either K9 Mail (which I've deleted, reinstalled, and entered settings manually) or Wi-Fi deep sleep. Hard to tell exactly what's causing the issue.

I'm curious... anyone else using K9 Mail and experiencing battery drain (on stock kernel)?

And how are people on alternative kernels with K9 Mail doing with battery?

It seems that K9 stays connected on a push for longer than necessary... but no info really on why (seems some people experience this, and others don't). I'm wondering if it's a kernel issue.

My call audio is better with CM7 than it ever was with stock.

For anyone experiencing bad call audio, I would recommend: perform a CWM backup of your data, wipe everything (factory reset), go back to BML Stock (via Odin), reflash your modem to EI22, do the CWM 5/CM7/Gapps install again (boot once, skip the Gapps sign in), restore data only from CWM backup/restore advanced.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
K9 loves to keep your phone awake. I switched to Enhanced Email a while ago and my battery lasts 20-30% longer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] the_details:
I've seen this from time to time, and I've found entering theme manager and re-applying the theme you are using fixes it (reboots the status bar) without rebooting.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
I use K9 as well, and I haven't noticed anything substantial about it draining battery. I have two accounts going through it, and one checks every 30 minutes while the other is at every 2 hours.

I may keep a closer eye on it now though, and if I see anything funky, I may give Enhanced Email a shot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
It could have been fixed since I used it about 2 months ago, but according to BetterBatteryStats it was keeping my phone awake more than anything else.

Enhanced Email was the free app of the day on Amazon, which is the main reason I tried it out. :D As a bonus it supports HTML signatures.
[Epic 4G Android Development] n0g0:
It seems to only be an issue with pushed accounts. If you're polling on timed intervals, it doesn't seem to be an issue. I don't want this to become a K9 discussion though!

I was just curious if anyone else using CM7 on the Epic was seeing something different from me, and if it could be tracked to a kernel issue.

I wasn't experiencing the wakelock from K9 on stock, so I wondered if it was a CM7 issue, or a kernel issue. Or a combination :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Devtodi:
Do you like enhanced email over stock? I tried it but didn't see

any benefits.
[Epic 4G Android Development] n0g0:
I'd also like to reiterate that the roaming DOES seem to be improved on n25.

I'm in NYC, and Sprint has a very dirty signal in much of the city.

My battery stats screen usually has hundreds of switches from green signal to brown and yellow (really, HUNDREDS).

With n25, and network system set to AUTOMATIC, I'm getting a solid green signal in battery status.

Nice work devs.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tbob18:
Well, it has been so long since I used the stock app I forgot how it even looks. :)

For starters it has a ton of options and is light on your battery. I prefer the dark theme and the ability to use HTML signatures.

The primary downside is that it does not show a preview of the message in your notifications like K9 does.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I've noticed the following bug on two different nighties. It happened I think first on Nightly 13. I have since wiped data and started from scratch (no data restores), and am currently on Nightly 23.

Out of no where, I'll get the high pitched old school digital phone ringtone...it doesn't stop unless I reboot or fire up the phone app and make a call. Happened to me once at like 3 AM & again yesterday at a random time. It also happened when I had an incoming call, that ringtone played as well as my selected ringtone. When I answered the phone, my selected ringtone stopped, but the high-pitched, old-school, digital ringtone kept playing the entire call.

Super Big Gulps eh? =]
[Epic 4G Android Development] exspecto:
Currently, I'm running nightly 24. and the uname -r shows "2.6.35-7-gc31656f"

I realize that the above post is a bit old, but I didn't find a reply to it and /dev/tun (or any other /dev/*/tun) still isn't present in the nightlies. I've tried installing after a full wipe as well. I couldn't find a tun anywhere in /dev, and "tun" doesn't show up in the dmesg as far as I can tell.

I've also tried creating /dev/tun directly using mknod, but even after that both vpn apps I use complain that the device isn't present (not the file, but the actual device). I've tried both get-a-robot-vpn and "VPNC Widget". get-a-robot just force closes. VPNC Widget compains that it can't open the device.

The error from VPNC Widget:

"can't open /dev/net/tun, check that it is either device char 10 200 or (with DevFS) a symlink to ../misc/net/tun (not misc/net/tun): No such device. Can't initialise tunnel interface: No such device"

Also, in VPNC Widget, if you click the "Check prerequisites" button, it says:

"Warning: 'Advanced Routing' feature missing - VPN connectivity might be lost after a while"

And yes, I've tried creating the files it's looking for using the correct mknod command, to no avail.

Is anyone else able to verify that tun is missing? I realize that tun is *supposed* to be built into the kernel, but it appears as if it has been accidentally left out. I've tried using both apps for several nightlies now, so I don't think it's isolated to just one of them.
[Epic 4G Android Development] exspecto:
I've had the same thing happen to me. It was after flashing a nightly. I think it has to do with the media scanner. Let me explain, after it happened I went to see which ringtone I had selected (a custom mp3) but it wasn't in the list and nothing was selected for the ringtone. I fired up the dev tool app and rescanned media. Afterwards, I found it in the ringtone list and it was already selected. Since then I haven't had the phantom ringtone problem. Check and see if that fixes it for you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] justppc:
This has happened to me three times since being on the nightlies. Last time it happened I was on nightly 12. It hasn't happened since. After n12, I have flashed n21, n22, n23, n24, n25. Skipped n13-n16.

Each flash has been via cwm recovery, with wipes of cache and dalvik only.
